"Finespun, a 4 piece band from New York who typifies the everlasting love affair we all have with the raw power, energy and emotion of rock and roll..." - Coca Cola New Artist Radio

Finespun

...was a little rock band that turned into a multi regional act that toured America from 2000-2013.

I've often thought of what I would say here, from time to time. There have been numerous drafts, musings and versions of what you're about to read. Rewrites are a necessary evil as my tongue was born in Brooklyn, so sometimes its a struggle to walk the path of the righteous man.

Being in a rock band is something I always wanted to be like being in a family. Through my 25 years in music, I had amassed many family members. Many beggars and hangers-on. Many devils and angels. Many trolls waiting under bridges to rob you of your gold. Many wonderful people without whom, my life would'nt be the same. Dysfunction seems to be the root of the musical family, and we had so much of that, if I could open a store, I'd be a rich man.

In this band, over so many late nights and long drives and clubs that smell like last nights vomit and theatres that smell like fresh linolium, I have personally been lucky or unlucky enough to feel furious highs and horribly desperate lows. We had trouble. We were trouble. We had spin control and we had train wrecks. We had friends and we had such deceptive enemies that if you did'nt pay attention, you couldn't see it coming.

In the years that we played, the music industry made some if its most historical strides to date. CD's went away, downloading and piracy, and now streaming. To say it was the new wild west is an understatment.

I wrote so much stuff. 3am? I wrote. 7am? I wrote. I managed. I booked. I made graphics and logos. I learned web design because I had to. I learned life because I had to. I learned pain and happiness, because I had to. All of this in my writing, all of this tattooed onto my soul, all of this to color future choices and decisions in an involuntary manner.

There are people I'd still like to choke and one's I know I'll never be able to hug again. Without naming names, which believe me is the totally righteous thing to do, this is what's left. I'm very happy that my words and music still live in some of your hearts, minds and souls. I would like to thank all of you who came to shows, bought our stuff, let us sleep on your floor, fed us, let us shower - and especially to the kindness of strangers on the road who would buy us a new tire every once in a while when they saw us stranded on the side of the highway. There is no way for me to repay you guys, you know who you are.

Trivia: It contains the demo recordings of 4 Walls 1 Window and Against The Fallout.

Track List:

Invisible

Against The Fallout

Bulletproof

4 Walls, 1 Window

The Last Album, Untitled, Unreleased, 2012/2013

Through line up changes and touring, 25 songs were written for what was supposed to be a much heavier follow-up album to Fracture. We recorded 20 songs, our bassist quit. We got a new one and re-recorded all his tracks. Then our guitar player left, forbidding the use of any of his tracks. He actually had the masters in pro tools, stripped his tracks out, and returned them to us with half the music. Obviously his tracks were so super valuable, that they needed to be locked in a vault. Sorry you couldn't hear it, it was a great record. If you contact me, maybe I'll share some of the rough mixes. You can always email me at finespun@finespunmusic.com

Video

Before there was a video cam in everyone's phone, we had to use Mini DV and sometimes VHS (gasp!). We existed right before youtube got launched, but there's plenty of content if you go search "Finespun Band" on youtube.com. There are a couple of Accuvue comercials we weer featured in, people playing our song on Playstation's Rock Band 3, Lyric videos, show videos and more. We had a DVD as well that featured our best buy performance. Wanna see it? Google "Finespun live at Best Buy!"

Lyrics

Here are some of the lyrics that didn't make it, ramblings from my notebooks, tributes, memorials and words from the 4th album that never got released...

Poised on the precipice of another epiphany,Take a bullet for enlightenment, These are some things that I had to get off my chest, Sinner by proxy,

I Love It When U Say Things That Make My Eyes Close

Click title to read:

Alive In the Echos'

Alive in echoes that we make
Between sleep and dream we stay
Whisperings as loud as screams
All to save some face

Finally awake
Skulls a 10 ton weight
Feet on the floor I head to the door
Before I have to explain

I know enough about you that I want to know more
But I made myself a promise I wouldn't fall for that anymore
Try and keep a distance when your body wants more
For now just stay asleep when I close the door

Tread lightly
I've learned slightly
That patience is key

2 Red Cents

Fooled myself that I had what I needed
Why do I long for what's beyond fated
How will I know when I've been completed? What's the sign?

Well I'm just broke up and I'm still shook
From all these things and the shit I took
Can't believe I'm still standing up this time.
Left my road and two red cents
But I saved the bucket I was bleeding in
Cause one day I hope it makes sense to me....

what if i wanted to break
what if its all my fault
what if i didnt put up
high enough a wall

you ask if its over, not just yet
well i cant stay sober through this mess

Can't stop from screaming out
If It's already over
did you come here to save me
or did i save myself
Before i go too far
if its already over
did you come here to save me
or did i save myself
Try and cut across our disconnect
even though theres not much left
ill be forced to carry on
without you
Even with all the static you're cutting through
I know theres not much i can do
except wait here overground
for whenever you come back down

Can't stop from screaming out
If It's already over
did you come here to save me
or did i save myself
Before i go too far
if its already over
did you come here to save me
or did i save myself
well its always something else
forever on my knees but your hands grew colder
maybe ill see you here next time around
Can't stop from screaming out

Always

Always keep a bag packed
In case I never wanna come back
I fear I'll have to use it someday

It's feeling all the same here
There's nothing puddled up like rain here
I know I need some kind of change,
episodes all the same and gray here

Bleed For You

It's the same old game we play
I'm not blind like u think I am
as they hold me from the truth
its the same as ive done to you

and im not afraid to lose
and im not afraid of you
as i fall into my own
watch you fall to pieces

if i said id bleed for you
how deep would you cut me
how much do you love me

you tear me down like a demolition
you never listen
im never forgiving you

Cause I dont want to
and I dont need you

as I lie here in between
all of my habits and me
when i stop to think
we go once more into the breach

and im not afraid to lose
and im not afraid of you
as i fall into my own
watch you fall to pieces

if i said id bleed for you
how deep would you cut me
how much do you love me

you tear me down like a demolition
you never listen
im never forgiving you

Came home last night
Too drunk too high
to even decide
If what I feel is right
inside my head
its a matter of fact
i know that we’ll meet again, meet again

Broken In

Sometimes we see what we don’t comprehend
The oncoming cars rushing in
And it’s so romantic

In time, I give myself away
You’ve nothing left to say
Well we’re better off that way

Hold my head and ask why
Chorus:
If I wanted to fly
You’d be the sky, and we could be angels
If you wanted the sea
I’d be the water that whirlpools around your feet
Still here, In the end
You had me very badly Broken In

Could have been quiet
Could have been perfect
I’ve never seen you making a noise

Everyone’s tied up
Waiting in line
Everyone is annoyed

So to the meek, go the spoils
Scratch my head as to why

Chorus

Bridge:
I cannot be moved, you see ‘cause I believe
You, you know where you’ve been and gone back again
Well…
Put it down easy
Take it back easy
I can see, everything you see
Come in here next to me
And lay down on top of me
Everything…is everything
But I’m still waiting…for you to let me in
I’m just waiting for my life to begin

Chorus

Dearly Departed

Raise a glass for the brokenhearted
Say a prayer for the dearly departed
Took it all, all the things that you gave me
Didn't know that you'd hold it against me
Take your stick to sand and blur these lines

Theres some things that youve just gotta - change
theres some words that you cant take away
whats the matter, cant stand to see my face?

Theres some things that youve just gotta - change
theres some things what you just cant erase
whats the matter, cant stand to see my face?
I cant imagine you would

I bet youd kill me if you could...
I can imagine that you would
Your supposed to be gone for good
you arent acting like you should

i cant believe that you would
we took all the pain that we could
bite your lip, taste the blood
turn your back, raise your hood

Laid in with the knowledge that you gave me
encourage behavior that you display
been through it in the past it doesnt phase me
I'll understand, Id believe you'd wanna kill me

take a sip leave sacrament behind

black heart no good
maybe you should

finally Ive seen you coming
i know I owe you next to nothing
still weakened, still feel something
for the dearly departed

Fall in
When i can
Up shaking
again
cant quell
heartache within
for the dearly departed.

ill walk right through your valley again
only shadows watching me and when
you lunge, we plunge fall down again
ill be waiting for you

Don't Get Used To It

Hello again
cant remember when
i saw you
dont get used to it
I cant ascend
you wont repent
dont get used to it

Tonight I've got everything u asked for
This time I'm gonna win it all
Tell me is it everything you wanted
I'm listening let the truth unfold

You make it
You break it
You take it all Till ya lose control

Hello again
You bet you can
Just don't get used to it
It's always missed
You can't resist
Just don't get used to it

You can't ascend
If you don't repent
So don't get used to it

Don't Leave

Don't leave me yet
I've much to say
Have to at least try
If your walking away
Maybe I would stake the porch as mine and you would sing the blues away
As the dishes in the sink washes all your pain away
And maybe there's a reason
That you've been thru so much wrong
When you can't have anything
You had me along

Everything Good Just Goes Away

Everything good just goes away
Don't lie to me and say you'll stay
I'm Trying much too hard again
And all of my promises tend to break

Every Word I Say Overflows

Every word I say
Overflows with pain
You're taking me
Through all the hate

Put the hate away
Gone again another day
Will come this way
And this way comes the

Rest of your life
On the edge of a knife
It's not that desperate
Yet

Why ask why
it's easier to find
another way back down

Why ask why
When we can always find
Another know it all

Why ask why
We can always find
Another way to fall

Give me time oh give me time
To find the strength
And rise above it all

Excuses

Cause I'm stoned
And I'm stupid
Really fuckin useless
But I will be sober again soon
What's your excuse?

Between Me and My Habit

I never wanted you between me and my habit
So close to me, but I can't grab it
Subtract yourself, i can't have it
I never wanted you between me and my habit

Happy in Grey

Hey,
How's you're life been?
Mines been fucked up
How are you doing today?

Have you met me?
Happy? Are you happy?
Just happier?

Between Me and My Habit

I've ruined lives
I'll ruin yours
Just watch the cues
For what to do
Deciding voice
Repeat the chores
I've got mine
What once was yours
Now I flee
Protecting me
From the pain
So I can't see
How I made it
Just this way
See you reaching
Out again

Later Than You Think

Time time
Take it back, if you dont want yours give it back to me

Fire fire
I'm burning down
You can put it all out by calling me, I'm waiting...

Soon I'll be gone...
As the sands slip back to the sea

Letting Go (for Leigh)

(You're the call I was waiting for)

Well i force myself to sleep
while my thoughts lend no relief
and the secrets that youve kept
haven't even caught up to me yet

but they speak in volumes to me now
the king has lost his crown
your temples tumble down
but I'll say

I will wait
for you to come
While I face
where i went wrong
and i can say
Hands down
i have not lost
anything at all
(im letting go, its not my fault)

well i woke up and knew that you were gone
cause you always had the stereo on
now youre burning the same old yarn
and im not scared about it anymore

I will wait
for you to come
now I can face
what i did wrong
and i can say
Hands down
that im letting go
it wasnt you at all

youre right, you were the perfect waste of time

Well I lost control
So I'm letting go

Listen

Do you listen to the radio?
Is it coming in louder than before?
Do you listen? I mean really listen?
I do

All things said seem so apropos
I’m just keeping up with the
Status quo

Well, is this just another part of this
That makes it so damn hard
To imagine
the feelings that you
That you put me through

If only I could explain
The difference is plain
No reason to be here
If your not here and
Theres only one reason for me to be leaving
That’s if you disappearing

We go on and on and then it comes to find us

Now it’s coming and there’s a truth
Can u find it?
But now your finding out that we’re all like-minded

This is just another part of this
That makes it so damn hard
To imagine
Being without you
And if I fall again

I will understand you
And always lend a helping hand
If it ever came to that but you know that

I would complicate you
Underestimate you
Never let it get that far

...Everyone is wondering where you going on to find me when I’m right here

Lonely (for Leigh)

Why am I not holding u right now?

In one month you'll be gone
Ill be
forced to carry on
Without you
And now I know theres nothing I can do
Even with all the static you're cutting through
And There's nothing I can do.

So when I ask myself
Why am I not holding you right now
Hope you'll be in a better place somehow
I'll be waiting right here overground
When u come back down

Maybe Now...

Maybe Now I Can Get My Soul Back
Traded it for this hole black
Let you use me for a door mat
Can't believe I did that

No Coming Back

There’s no coming back from this
Is there something that I missed?
This is fear, relentless sun
Feels like staring down a gun
Drive all night and crack the sun

Are you reaching out for me?
Cause I’m reaching out for

You
The lines are drawn and I’m back home with
These memories of this life I used to know

There’s no silver lining now
Sun drags a fleece of clouds
Put your hand upon my arm
Trace your fingers around my scars
They don't define who you are

Are you reaching out for me?
Cause I’m reaching out for

You
The lines are drawn and I’m back home with
These memories of this life I used to know

Gotta walk away…
Theres nothing left to say

One Side, Two Faces

She's been gone for six hours
We've forgone the flowers
For post fire scatter
Again, I can't even visit if I wanted to

As a fleece drags behind
I know that she'd find
Hope that I'm writing a story

Always a mean one
To me such a sweet one
Responsible for so many things

Memories

One Step Back From The Ledge

We can all breathe
Make sure were all alive
Take another chance
On living out our lives

Just a straight line step
Don't worry bout the edge
Feel the blood rush
As I pull you from the ledge
Faith in my ability to make a fist

Open Ended

I'm restless
Open ended
Have i offended
A sense of what could be

Surrendered
Feel we should
Let it
be What it should be

If one day I should
Figure it all out
And I hope you're
There with me

I couldn't let it all go down
I couldn't let you fall without an outstretched hand
I wouldn't reach for just anyone
Fading, fingerprints I leave

Its tremendous
Quivers my chest
Makes me nervous
Will I threaten this again

Come to me my darlin
Let me breathe you in
What’s your name?
I will sign you waiver
Give you aspirin for your sin
Another conversation ends
A new one will begin
Tomorrow’s contemplation turns out to be perilous

Come back, you said your comin’ back
Well I’m standing here, I can’t (won’t) wait forever (live forever)
Inside this burns me completely
So Pale (Beware), of the watchword
That spills my maroon filled with love
Its more of an episode than usual

The membership has made a choice
Degrade the girls and skillthe boys
Some say we’re better off
Some say that they agree
He said it’s catching and we’re all infected and hey man your looking pale

Well are you feeling overwhelmed?
That’s too bad, It’s a shame
Well I can’t tell you the answer
That would be to easy
Well your running out of faith??
Well I’m running out of steam

It’s more of an episode than usual...

Quantified

(3/3)

Quantified
Your design
Terrified
That it will fail the fray

Tempted by
All we hide
Fact is that I'm
Starting to show

And it's...
Trying to start to change
Leaving nothing the same

Right on time
Were perfect here
Never fear
Ill draw you into lines
Leading to
What You always knew
Finding you
in your place

In the car in front of me standing in place
She's got her hands up on the dash staring into space
Wondering how much longer till the traffic breaks
Wondering how much more of this she can take
Well it's alright, for just one more time
It's never to late to run away
All the promises got broken just yesterday
But we said all the words that we needed to say last night
But if I see your eyes again...

The Story of My Life

other titles:
The Resistance
Face down
Cover my escape

This itch is always so insistent.
When did I let it get so persistent.

Freeze Frame
Refrain
Just take a step back and let it all in
If youre waiting for
The sky to fall
Theres no second chance
You're not gonna win

I'm killing myself systematically now
Memories fall like stones to the ground
I'll
burn this whole thing down
But first I'll find a way to bury you
Somehow

Refrain
Freeze frame
Just take a step back and let It all

Fall, Away
Why i hold on is a mystery, why dont you
Stop, Wait
Before you kill all the things that are close to me and I
FALL

Wait till the last nerve breaks again
I'll show you all my scars my friend
I won't
make the same mistake again
First I'll find a way to escape somehow

Refrain
Freeze frame
Just take a step back and let It all
Fall, Away
Why i hold on is a mystery, why dont you
Stop, Wait
Before you kill all the things that are close to me and I
Fall, Face
Down in the violence in front of me, you can be
Cold, you can be distant,
this could be everything I was missing
Its no wonder that Im so resistant

great here we go again
im losing control again
your sleeve has your soul again
why did i let you in...
Well I can't believe what you're saying to me
Let it...
Fall Away....

Tear Down

She spends her life
To tear that mother down
It isn’t right
She’s got to tear that mother down
She takes a knife
She’s gonna cut that that fucker down

I felt the pain stop
When I cam to this place
I felt every rain drop
Crack on my face
And there were two tiny diplomats
Talking about space
Like it was home

They said,
“Come on it’s time to run,
There ain’t no life for us behind the sun, “
They said, “Now come on emabrace, man,
It’s time we replace this one..”

If I, had the
Strength at least to turn plus from minus
I would make them
Sign the papers and make them release us
Tear down the walls that exist to greet us

Nothing takes it all away like time

If I was on the ground
Would you come and kick me while I was down
Or would you take me to slum
In your garden

And if I was to find out
Would you make me, hell could you take me?

It’s one hell of way to find out
That I was left behind for another
Destroyed, this world can not recover
From the force it took to tear it down

The Edge

Fuck everything,
If i cant make you scream
We take failure such
That I'll stand and rust
Fuck everything
If I can't make u scream
What good is touch
When there's no trust
We talk too much
And fail to listen

The One Who Waits

This don’t help at all
Injury
Lends an insult

What do you mean we can’t do this ourselves?

She waits for me
To say it out loud
After this
We can never be the samev

I may be falling to pieces

But I will be the One
Who sits right over here
Protecting us all from the lies
It repeats all the time
I’m not self assured I’m scared of a price that’s to high
Just you watch
It’ll come like a message from
Reach your faith
By telephone
All that ends it starts right there and now

Through this contrast, I can see
Only red, only you, and only me
This was never meant to be

I may be falling to pieces

But I will be the One
Who sits right over here
Protecting us all from the lies
It repeats all the time
I’m not self assured I’m scared of the pain
I feel the price of this is way too high
To just suffer down the line
It repeats down the line
And if she gave him up
I would be waiting
I would be awake

The Only Reason That I'm Here

The only reason that I'm here
Is 'cause your here
Still standing
Still breathing
I wish that I could make clear
That the fear is
withstanding all..

Thinking Is the Enemy

Thinking is my enemy
All I see
Is grey to me
Fork stuck in the road I see
Which choice will be right for me

This is just a bad day
Let it pass
Lead us closer to the grave

This is just a bad day
Fade it fast
It won't last
If I don't let it stay

The Ties That Bind

You came for the perfect one
I showed you where the lines were drawn
you took it all till it was gone
Now the rain is falling down
Just wait

never put the candle out
but i can hardly live in doubt
theres fewer things that drag me down
the rain is falling now
wash away

Well Im finally over this
your insane politics
like pianos falling on me

Well Im wide open
Tell me, would you die for it?
The ties that bind our lives
are already broken again
When the chimes call the hour
So falls your power
its time to admit/say its over
and we've already broken ourselves

Im Throwing all my vices down
Well take another look around
Ive gotta learn to phase you out
The rain is falling down
wash away

Well Im finally over this
your insane politics
like pianos falling on me

Well Im wide open
Tell me, would you die for it?
The ties that bind our lives/ the lines behind our lies
are already broken again
When the chimes call the hour
So falls your power
its time to admit/say its over
and we've already broken ourselves...again

Explain
what you want from me
Cause I cant take anymore
of this agony
or my rage

Just take
what you need of mine
Anything you can find
So I can just save my time
and walk away

Well Im wide open
Tell me, would you die for it?
The ties that bind our lives/ the lines behind our liesv
are already broken again
When the chimes call the hour
So falls your power
its time to admit/say its over
we're already broken again

Top of the World

So the top if the world is getting ready to spend it's first day without you
There's no one else to call at this hour of the dawn where are you
Don't know how I'll face the day without you telling me I'll be ok
And you thought somehow we'd be better off without you?

Upon Waking Blues For L

The last text she ever sent me
said that she loved me and
that I was a good man
not good enough it seems
if i was a little better or just a little faster
could have stopped what you were after
and saved myself
when i think about you it just seems
whether out loud or every night in all my dreams
that youre still here with me, like you never left
so i smoke another ciggarette and thank you for this gift
you showed me what it was to be happy again
was it just a fleeting moment, that rests on your last breath
first or last, now or never
ill be with you now and forever
i could've stayed just one more day and never really walked away
my mistake, forgive me please i know you do
but that doesn't make it better, so i write this letter
and cast it off, and bury you, I'm blessed to have met her at all

Upside Down

Tired of living all upside down
Think it's time for me to blow this town
Barrel down the road, music loud
Get a little piece of mind somehow

You Killed Me

You killed me
But it can't be
I can't speak
But you're never wrong

You got me
Skin deep
Cut straight
To the bone

Wait like a
Time bomb
Inside of a
Snowstorm

Go off
Get ready
For a new day
A new dawn

The haze cuts
So thick
You can't see
With the lights on

So let's turn
Them off and
It'll just be (us)
Just be

And it's ordinary as your life
Burning out somewhere out there at the speed of light
Try and hold on to what is mine
There's no surer way to leave it all behind

Wait For It

keep your head down
Im so far gone this season
unfamiliar to me the reason
that I lost my crown, now Im coming after you

just do what we all do
take a pill if it soothes you
Im on the mend, but youll do it again, turn your back on your friends
its just easier for you

Wait for it
Wait for it
If you didnt feel it the last time, watch out, its lights out the next time
Wait for it
Wait for it
If you didnt feel it the last time, watch out, its lights out the next time

But youll do it again
You always do it again

If you're upheld like a hero
All the deeds that you do
The id and the ego, are always beside you

Your armor is easy
Just one cut and you break right through
all the blood I bleed makes it
Easier for you

Wait for it
Wait for it
If you didnt feel it the last time, watch out, its lights out the next time
Wait for it
Wait for it
If you didnt feel it the last time, watch out, its lights out the next time

Through skin through bone
You Put your finger on
the bullet hole
Just one more push to drive it home

Before I
Restore my
faith in which I
thought might
save me from you

So I ask why
i just might
anticipate the truth
well im gone this time

Watching Shadows

i regret
what i lost
if i look
to the cross
will it tell me why or let me down again

so i tread
lightly
cause i feel
slightly
off but ill throw myself right in

and so we can begin
all to feel alive

so burn the clock, the time we took
its what we needed to get off
just sacrifice the words for what they mean
Im sorry for the things i took
but your heart was like an open book
I did it while i looked you in the eye
don't know why its all a lie
so ill say goodbye
you left your light on, under the mat, you're keys
you ask me once again
just every now and then
I don't know why, i don't know why and
i don't know when
well I'm watching shadows on the wall
waiting for you to come to call
every sound i jump to the window to see

are you driving in the car we took
will you reach for my car door lock
are you driving in the car we stole
spent so much time to fill this hole
all i want is to look you in the eye
before we say goodbye

im here till the end
i can feel within
all the love and all the light you lend
but its alright
it cant be wrong
all these nights i just keep on holdin on
you were my way home
my way home
i would just sacrifice everything
every now and then, you find me stuttering...

When I Drink I Think of You

When I drink I think of you
And all the things that you can do
To turn me on

Found a part of my I thought was dead
Hiding out inside my head
As we took our masks off and laid the past off

Nothing better barley said
Your little whispers came and fed
On me, when I needed them most

Well I can walk and you can run
If you're here I'm having fun
And if this aint forever, may tomorrow never come

I cant even hardly wait
The way your body hesitates
And releases at my touch again

And after all was said and done
As long as I could make you come
And I could watch you sleeping in my arms
Then id be happy

Who's Sorry Now

What happens now?
I fall apart!
Where do I start?!?

i asked you
to help me
before i fell
apart completely

you said that
you'd keep me
then let go
well fuck me

ill tell you
it comes deeply
im not sorry
not sorry now

when you left me
i could see
im not sorry
who's sorry now

who's sorry now
oh, the hearse that you tried to get in again
pretend its the first
time you were in my head

we fall
once from above me
then below our feet
and its hotter than hellv
and i cant breathe, i cant breathe

i asked you
to help me
but you took me down
and bled me out

Are my words too much for you to hear? Hysterical ravings dropped inside your ear....

The problem with the music industry is that there are not enough bands like Finespun. They are persistent, hardworking and aggressive. These gentlemen exploit every possible opportunity that comes their way. When there isn’t a visible opportunity they have a knack of creating their own. On the bands latest CD, entitled “Fracture”, Finespun welcomed producers A.J. Resta and Karyadi Sutdjeta who were interested enough in the group to lend their professional skills to the product.

They're regulars at clubs in the northeast and open for the likes of Gilby Clarke (formerly of Guns 'N Roses), Wheatus, The London Quireboys, Hookah Brown (Black Crowe's), Kings X and For The Taking (Ex-Fuel & Apocalyptica lead singer Toryn Greene) and Tantric. They tour the US from New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Maryland, Austin and everywhere in between. In addition they have played showcases at SXSW( 2003, 2007, 2009, 2010, 2011) , Millennium Music Conference 12, 13, 14 & 15, Miami Music Festival, and Cleveland Music Festival 2011. As a result of this exposure and their continued popularity, they were also chosen as one of the top fifty bands in the country by Coca-Cola's New Music Awards.

The New York based band is without a doubt a band to watch not only on the New York circuit but also throughout the nation. Finespun generates much of its stage presence and studio creativity through a sense of respect for musical inspiration.

The long-term goal for Finespun is to gain more fans and further extend the reach of their music. Offering tracks like “Hourglass”, one of the heavy hitters off their new release entitled “Fracture”, “Against The Fallout”, a ballad that speaks from the heart and “4 Walls, 1 Window” which takes a introspective look at ones frustration, success is simply eminent. They also maintain a very active website, www.finespunmusic.com, where you are always able to find new audio and video fresh from the studio. Finespun is a band that should be recognized as a band for the people with an ultimate goal of touching you with their music.

Finespun’s creativity has always been fused from each member. There is no turning back for Finespun. This bands mission is to play their music for a living. Singer and guitar player Oren Barak sums it up, “we’ve all dumped our life’s blood into this band. This is all we want and there is no alternative.” When asked about the opportunities that are present for musicians drummer Ed Grazi mentions, “independent artists get so much more assistance these days because of online services. There are so many more resources to embrace and exploit. You just have to get out there and do it.”

...At this time, Finespun is currently gigging around the east coast in support of their release “Fracture”. while prepparing songs for their new release. CONTACT US HERE
